Loved the seeing the units and the greenery.

I have been away for sometime from blogging !!!! But here I am again back with some intersting pictures and tips. Hope you like it .

This is how i dressed up for valentine's day lunch date.I have teamed up a simple peach V neck top picked up from local shop at Delhi with a pair of blue corduroy pants.Silver watch and a reptile print clutch.I kept the makeup very simple (kajal and liner , with a bronze shade peachy shade for the lips).Lastly I opted for my beige & white slip-on.

Tips
1. Go for casual dresses like a sundress if its warm /jeans and black top /white jeans and a cute top/skirt and a t-shirt .One can opt for colors like pinks,peaches or tangerines etc .You can team it up with flats or wedges.(so you don't wobble )You can also opt for correct heels to bring harmony to your look.Try layering which is the most easiest and makes you look more natural and side by side stylish.Skip any necklines that highlight cleavage which is more apt for evening time.
2. Stay away from very dark and bright lipsticks - opt for lip gloss ( probably shades of pink /peach/ plum)
3. keep your make subtle.
4.Wear some accessories like earrings , bracelets which compliments your outfit. But do not accessorize too much keep it minimal and carry your day essentials in a satchel.
5. Go for a neat hairstyle.
6. Finish off by spraying your favorite perfume.
7.Go for a day bag /clutch (chain strap bags are more in fashion these days and even add quoitent to the regular bags)
8.The most important be yourself :D

Poems

Fire and Ice by Robert Frost

Some say the world will end in fire,Some say in ice.From what I've tasted of desireI hold with those who favour fire.But if it had to perish twice,I think I know enough of hateTo say that for destruction iceIs also greatAnd would suffice.

The Road Not Taken by Robert Frost

Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,And sorry I could not travel bothAnd be one traveler, long I stoodAnd looked down one as far as I couldTo where it bent in the undergrowth;Then took the other, as just as fair,And having perhaps the better claim,Because it was grassy and wanted wear;Though as for that the passing thereHad worn them really about the same,And both that morning equally layIn leaves no step had trodden black.Oh, I kept the first for another day!Yet knowing how way leads on to way,I doubted if I should ever come back.I shall be telling this with a sighSomewhere ages and ages hence:Two roads diverged in a wood, and I-I took the one less traveled by,And that has made all the difference.

Daffodils by William Wordsworth

I wandered lonely as a cloudThat floats on high o'er vales and hills,When all at once I saw a crowd,A host, of golden daffodils;Beside the lake, beneath the trees,Fluttering and dancing in the breeze.

Continuous as the stars that shineAnd twinkle on the milky way,They stretched in never-ending lineAlong the margin of a bay:Ten thousand saw I at a glance,Tossing their heads in sprightly dance.

The waves beside them danced, but theyOut-did the sparkling leaves in glee;A poet could not be but gay,In such a jocund company!I gazed—and gazed—but little thoughtWhat wealth the show to me had brought:

For oft, when on my couch I lieIn vacant or in pensive mood,They flash upon that inward eyeWhich is the bliss of solitude;And then my heart with pleasure fills,And dances with the daffodils.

With A Copy Of 'A House Of Pomegranates' by Oscar Wilde

Go, little book,To him who, on a lute with horns of pearl,Sang of the white feet of the Golden Girl:And bid him lookInto thy pages: it may hap that heMay find that golden maidens dance through thee.

I Do Not Love You Except Because I Love You by Pablo Neruda

I do not love you except because I love you;I go from loving to not loving you,From waiting to not waiting for youMy heart moves from cold to fire.

I love you only because it's you the one I love;I hate you deeply, and hating youBend to you, and the measure of my changing love for youIs that I do not see you but love you blindly.

Maybe January light will consumeMy heart with its cruelRay, stealing my key to true calm.

In this part of the story I am the one whoDies, the only one, and I will die of love because I love you,Because I love you, Love, in fire and blood.
